I've had the same problem (at least wrt to X), but it seems to disappear when cold-booting. It even works when I boot with modeset=0, kill X, then reload the i915 module with modeset=1. Maybe the kms is a bit flakey when X played with it for too long beforehands.
But kernel modesetting for the framebuffer console always works, so YMMV.
